Shofixti vs Chmmr is still my favorite match up. The sheer terror for each person is hilarious. Desperately trying to get in close to detonate and hopefully take out his zap sats and cripple it. Meanwhile the chmmr pilot terrified to get in

It did happen here in the Bay Area. I’m a huge EV fan but this does concern me. My Tesla charges right under the bedroom of my two year old. https://www.businessinsider.com/couples-tesla-caught-fire-ch...

The only numbers I can quickly find is this at about a 30x difference: For instance, Mayor Francis Suarez from Miami noted that TBC quoted $30 million for a tunnel under the Miami River. In comparison, the Miami-Dade County transit offi

I have actually. The ones in Korea and Japan were excellent. Thats why I specifically mentioned the US. I'm not sure why there is a such a stark difference (cultural reasons?) but it remains the public transit in most of the US is a te

I thought the cost was dramatically cheaper than subway systems because it was a much smaller diameter tunnel and didn't require nearly as much equipment? I seem to remember it was something like 10 or 100x cheaper (I'll have to l

The problem with a subway is that I don't want to take a subway. They are often dangerous in the US, make it difficult to transport items, they are frequently dirty, and really just inconvenient. I see these tunnels as somewhere in bet

Note the headline can be slightly misleading for those not familiar with the Tesla cars and app. This outage affects app features only, like remotely turning on your AC or popping open your front trunk. You can still walk up to your car, ha

Terraform has multi-cloud support but it is not cloud agnostic. You have to rewrite your terraform for the things that you want to move to another provider. Moving to other providers is unfortunately rarely easy except for all but the most

Yeah the idea is the trains are filled with tons of weight. In my head it still seems like it would be cheaper than digging out massive reservoirs for pumped hydro. Rail seems relatively cheap even if you do have to replace it regularly bec

I once accidentally ran a load test against our password API in production and reset the password for about 100k users to random characters. Hang in their bud. Happens to us all.

As a counter point, we had major issues with just paying for it via CircleCI. Excessive downtimes, a UI so slow it was nearly unusable, etc. We decided at the time we couldn't bet our company on it and we moved to Jenkins. We have far

In addition to what others have said, it is important to point out that the CDK is AWS specific. Your "infrastructure" is rarely just "AWS" even if you're not multi-cloud. Terraform and Pulumi can operate on things

To be fair, I have to look over and down to do the same on my 2018 Audi A4 even though it has (far too many) buttons and dials to control that. My main complaint on our Model 3 is the windshield wiper control. The Auto setting is terrible a

For some things, like navigation and settings, I absolutely love a touch screen. For other things, like wiper control in the Model 3, I definitely do not like it and it is worse. I think this might just come down to personal preference. Aft

I think they only meant "that long". In other words, not for 5+ years without an upgrade. Not that you shouldn't run them at all. Not everything can be highly ephemeral or a managed service, so running servers yourself is tot
